I ordered the Braised Beef with Honey Bacon Brussels. The beef had a tang to it that was a little "different," but not in a bad way. It almost tasted like it had been marinated in something slightly acidic or tangy. It caught me off guard at first, but it still worked. The Brussels sprouts were decent, and the honey butter added a nice touch. I was expecting some bacon pieces though and didn't find any. Bacon makes everything better, so that would have definitely taken it up a notch. Overall, it's a really nice place and I'd definitely come back to try something else on the menu.

When we went there in 2021, it was fairly good. The older waitresses oozed the old south charm. And…read morethe food? It was like a good Southern family home cooking place. Now, I don't know what has happened since then, but something did. To begin with, the place always looked "used". It had been there a long time and that's expected but this time the chairs looked badly worn and the carpet was in need of help. But it looked clean over all. The workers were friendly but very busy. They had a teenage boy who seated us who was in need of some grooming. But he was polite, so we let it slide. The waitress was very casual and nice as well. But it looked like this one poor lady was handling the entire side of the place by herself. I can overlook all of the above if the food is good but... To begin with, I ordered the same meal I ate in 2021 and yes, I remembered it! As a turkey lover, I recalled it as a Thanksgiving kind of meal that I enjoyed which was why I ordered it again. It was billed on the menu as: Sliced turkey, stuffing, three sides and cranberry sauce. I could eat Thanksgiving 365! And that first time was like reliving Thanksgiving at Moms. Not this time. Aside from being out of broccoli (which limited the green sides down to green beans and/or collard greens- which I do not like) there was an issue with things not being as presented in the menu. The "stuffing" or "dressing" was a small heap of mushy something. It was thin, watery and bland. Horrible! The "sliced turkey" was fractured white meat of turkey, fractured so much that it seemed to meld into the mushy dressing. The two were undiscernable. And it, too, was bland. There was something they called turkey gravy but it was definitely a canned or otherwise prepackaged gravy: bright yellow in color and gloppy in texture. The mashed potatoes were fine, a little salty but fine, though I am not sure if they were homemade or from mix or what. The "green beans" were not what I had before. Before I had what, at worst, had been frozen green beans, though well-seasoned and cooked through. This time I was given Italian beans from a can that had no flavor to them. And then there was the mac n cheese. The test of a good Mom and Pop place is the M&C and this batch failed. Over cooked elbow macaroni in a non-saucy glob of light orange gunk that tasted like flour and not cheesy at all. If that sounds bad, worse was the pie. They used to serve cake and some damn good cake, too! But we were told today they serve pies. I ordered the lemon meringue. I make lemon meringue pie so I know fully well what one should taste and look like and this was NOT it! The fill looked like leftover banana pudding with the bananas extracted. It wasn't set and the meringue slid off of it. The meringue itself had a wateriness that I couldn't quite figure out but it was lightly toasted on top. The corn muffins were good, though they could have gone without being dunked in butter. Over all, I cannot give this place the report I would have liked to have given a landmark in Montgomery. Its sad, too.

The two meat came with another side so chose the broccoli casserole. Had I come on the day when the fried green tomatoes or fried okra were the option, I definitely would have swapped out the broccoli casserole.

To start off positive, the bar has great drinks! Always very good and fun to sit there and sip away while chatting in a good environment. Now for the bad. The restaurant seems like they have just opened for business that day for the first time ever! It's absolutely ridiculous. The entranceway is not set up properly, so people jam in there and also have to wait outside just to place their orders, which always takes far too long. The person(s) working that front register always seem to not fully grasp what they are doing or how to provide good customer service. Everything just seems too lackadaisical. And the menu?! The menu is not good! I have been there many times, almost always against my will (for a luncheon or other function), and I and those I am there with are always so disappointed with how limited the menu is and how mediocre the food is. It's a wonderful environment, especially if you are sitting outside in one of the many Adirondack chairs provided (which is a major plus); but again, the restaurant just doesn't seem to have a clue overall. Food takes far too long and is always subpar. Again, they act as if they have never done this before, which is ridiculous. Once they get a handle on the restaurant situation, I will gladly return for a wonderful time in the great environment at the bar or outside relaxing. Please improve! I truly want you to succeed in a big way!
